First 2011 Tournament

Fishing the Colorado Bass Federation Nation State Team Qualifying Tournament at Truman Lake, MO.

     I fished my first 2011 tournament last week and had satisfactory results; 3^rd overall and within a few fish of winning.  I only had a limit on one day, and the four fish missing on the other two days were all the difference between 3^rd and 1^st.

Spring Prep

Prepping for a tournament is not a simple thing.  Since we have a lot of hard water for most of the winter the boat often can sit for several months without seeing the light of day.  So when the time comes to get out on the water there are a lot of things to check.
